Zucchini and tomato carpaccio
If you want an appetizer, a salad or an original accompaniment, easy and quick to prepare, but above all very rich, do not hesitate to do what I propose.
I recognize that every day I like everything more vegetable, for that reason as soon as I saw this appetizer in some blogs I did not hesitate for a moment in preparing it. I have always eaten the cooked zucchini and I could not imagine what its raw flavor would be and the truth is that I liked it a lot, so much so that I have prepared it a few times more. But I have also seen that you can make many variants of this recipe, which I will gradually try: accompanying it with nuts, cherry tomatoes, goat cheese or mozarella ... I'll tell you.
When I bought them I decided on the smallest, most tender and juicy courgettes, and I discarded the central part (which I take advantage of to do pisto, for example) staying alone with the lateral ones, without seeds.
I hope you like it.
